Six-month blog birthday

This blog has now been online six  months. Happy birthday, Lane7. I think it’s fair to say the complete absence of posts in recent months suggests I am far from the world’s most diligent blogger. Here I am, turning up like a bad penny, mainly thanks to a comment about Hawthornden from children’s writer Joan Lennon. (Hi Joan, congrats, I hope it goes really well for you. I am sure you’ll like the location. Who wouldn’t?) Well, I’d not really planned on writing a post today, and am finding the new WordPress layout good but distracting, so I’ll keep it short. Will be back soon with some updates on the fiction front.
